4/26/2021 - Steelhead in the classroom season 2 - Episode 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,8

MarkRRFF helps support Steelhead in the classroom.  Member Karl Joost helps coordinate our effort to provide member classroom mentors and funds for the program to supply tanks and other equipment to have teachers raise steelhead from eggs for release in local streams.  The following is a weekly 15-20 minute episodes which went live for classrooms at 8 am each Monday beginning March 8:
This 8 part series follows the experience of hatching fish from tank set up to release. Each week we include:
  • Tank Time With Tom (member Tom Greer)
  • On The (Russian) River With Gisell
  • Ask A Biologist with Shelly, Ryan, and Derek
  • An introduction and conclusion by Ethan.
"Your actions can make a difference in protecting fish and their homes"
is our theme and each week students can submit questions for the biologists or send in their ideas on how they can improve trout habitat through their everyday actions.

                            Who Are Russian River Fly Fishers? 
People of all ages who enjoy fly fishing, located in Sonoma County, California.  The club's roots go back to the summer of 1976 in Norm Sutcliffe's sporting goods store in downtown Santa Rosa.
        Activities:
  • The Club offers outings throughout the year to various nearby locations (click on "Club Calendar & Trip Signups").  Outings offer good fellowship and a chance to learn and share fishing experiences.  
  • The Club's fly casting pond (100'x 180' x 18") was dedicated in May of 1986.  Club members meet at the pond to practice and to offer free instruction to those wanting to improve their casting skills.  The pond, open to the public, is one of only four public ponds in the state.  
  • Club meetings in Santa Rosa offer fly tying, member fishing reports and discussion, a great raffle, and a featured guest speaker who is often a well known angler.
  • Additional activities include a monthly women's group outing, fly tying meeting, day fisher group outing and an annual Cioppino Dinner Fundraiser. 

    Primary Objectives of the club:
  • To advance, promote, practice and teach the art of angling with artificial flies.
  • To encourage the members and fisher persons everywhere to practice the high standards of sportsmanship long associated with fly fishing.
  • To promote conservation and protection of wild game fish
